  Not only is it evil, it’s also dangerously incompetent. None of the “let the bodies pile high” brigade seem to ever considered what the actual consequences on society would have been if the streets really had started to fill with body bags.

  The panic was bad enough as it was, imagine how things could have spiralled if there was no control over the pandemic at all.
